The battery charge against LSU defensive back Jalen Mills has been reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor, according to reports Monday by Gannett News Service and NOLA.com.

Mills, a 20-year-old junior, was arrested June 10 and originally charged with felony second-degree battery stemming from a May 4 altercation with a female acquaintance at his Baton Rouge apartment. He was then suspended indefinitely by Tigers coach Les Miles.

Both the NOLA.com and Gannett reports cited East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney Hillar Moore as saying the charge would be reduced to simple battery, and the Baton Rouge Advocate later obtained court documents to that effect.

Mills was a freshman All-American as a cornerback for the Tigers in 2012. He moved to safety last season, starting all 13 games and finishing with 67 tackles and three interceptions.

Miles has not yet made public comment as to Mills' status for the 2014 season. LSU began fall practice on Monday morning.
